integral of (2x)/(x^4)

\int \frac{2 x}{x ^{4}} d x

- \frac{1}{x ^{2}} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{2 x}{x ^{4}} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{x}{x ^{4}} d x

Cancel the common factor:

x

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{x ^{3}} d x

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{2 x ^{2}}

= 2 (- \frac{1}{2 x ^{2}})

Simplify

2 (- \frac{1}{2 x ^{2}}) : - \frac{1}{x ^{2}}

= - \frac{1}{x ^{2}}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{x ^{2}} + C

\int \frac{1}{z ln ( z ) ln ( ln ( z ) )} d z

\int \frac{x}{( 1 + x ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}} d x

\int 2 x - z d x

\int \frac{e ^{x}}{x} d x

\int \frac{2}{4 x - 1} d x
